@cmomma17: So not lame! I will probably wrap up stuff she needs as well, since she won't know the difference. And really I think she is just going to want to eat the paper.

@cmomma17: @bunnylove08: Last Christmas and for her birthday, LO got a ton of crap she didn't need. How many talking and singing stuffed animals does one child need? Definitely not five. I donated a bunch of the toys and tried to rotate some. I am going to be donating a few more. This year I told family and friends--and I don't care if it seems mean--we live in a tiny apartment and we can't have multiple types of the same toys. If you'd like to buy something for her, please look at the gift list and choose something from there (or something similar to the items on the list) or you run the risk of your gift being donated

@T-Mom: I've been looking everywhere for a used copy! I may just break down and buy it new, but I really wanted to find it used, if at all possible!

@Honeybee: It looks like there are some pretty good used options on amazon... http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0060256672/ref=sr_1_2_up_1_main_olp?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1384459573&sr=1-2&condition=used
